I have DV 316L
I have followed instructions for setting up but when I press the menu button all I see is chinese or japanese instructions. I have pressed the up down left right but I have been unable to get the mnu to English. I just purchased the unit yesterday and I intend to return it to the store if I can't get the menu in English so I can proceed with the setup.

I am not interested in purchasing a plan for service just to get a new item up and running. The instruction book is not clear enough to do this. If I can't solve this problem without paying to get a new item up and running, I plan to return it to t ...

I had the same problem, it is the switch inside that is broken which allows you to switch back and forth between viewing pictures and taking them. There isn't really a fix besides getting the switch replaced and I am having a very hard time trying to ...

I have a Panasonic DMC FS5, the problem is that its in Chinese and i can't change it to english. how can i change it to english

When I put the camera on I can see the pics I have stored on the camera although I have to scroll through a black screen for 3 or 4 clicks first. When I switch it to take a picture I just have a black screen with some of the menu showing. I reluctantly recharged the batteries even though I didn't have the battery low warning and it hasn't helped. Can you help please? I also did a reset to default by holding the menu button.

When I switch on my camera I get 'Err CF' on the display. According to the handbook I have to format the compact flash card - when it is formatted the menu will reappear - the menu does Not reappear bu 'Err 99' does.

Green light on camera back to the right of the 'delete' button continually flashes on-off about 1 second intervals as soon as battery is inserted as long as CF card is in place. Switching camera ON produces no visible operational indicators. Depressing "Menu" button flashes: hour glass; menu display; blank screen. Holding button down just cycles as above. Swapped lens, data card, battery, connected EH-5 power source; nothing makes any difference. Checked same lens in another D70 camera; it's OK.

I would start by looking into the memory card slot to see if you have a bent pin. You may need a small light and a magnifying glass to see them. If the pins are okay, then you can try a reset by holding down the BKT and metering buttons toget ...
